Are you ready   Ready to cry   Are you ready   Ready to cry   This is the saddest story we all know why   So cry cry cry      Are you ready   Ready to leave   This life we love   You know what I mean   No more whiskey   No more cigarettes   And your last breath just like a sunset   You know I love your old bones   I love your story but you’re going home   Are you ready      Are you ready   Ready to die   Are you ready   Ready to die   Is there anything I can do   Cause saying goodbye to you    Will be the hardest thing I ever do   Don’t worry buddy we’ll see this thing through   I’ll cry the river that carries you through   Are you ready
